After-School Club

Our after school activity club, Beau Belles, caters for our students, age 3-11, between 15:30 and 17:30.

Feedback from parents in one of our questionnaires highlighted the need for an after school facility to help busy parents and to offer onsite enrichment activities.

Beau Belles provides fun and stimulating care for children after school in a safe and friendly environment managed by staff from within the School team. The staff members already know the students and their families which is a benefit for all involved; they are all trained in first aid and have a wealth of experience in working with young children.

Parents can select to send their children at the end of each term for the following term and can opt for the first session 15:30 - 16:30, the second session 16:30 - 17:30 or both on a variety of days. Session fees will then be added to the termly fee note. All the children will receive a nutritional snack and our aim is that they are involved in its preparation.

We structure the beginning of the sessions by offering a choice of two group activities, usually a craft and sport activity. Children can choose what they want to do after then and the choices are growing:

arts and crafts

computer games and skills

outdoor sports and games

reading

board games

computer time

baking

gardening

dressing up and creating plays

We are a growing and relatively young club and any comments and feedback are always welcome. Also, if you would like to help during any of the sessions or have a talent or skill you could share please let us know!
